Limited Authority of the Band Sample Clauses

Limited Authority of the Band. 34 The Attorney General argues the Band has no authority to seek a declaration on behalf of the Lakes Division that there has been inadequate consultation in respect of the incorporation decision. According to the affidavit of Chief Xxxx, Xxxxx Lake Band, he is only authorized by the members of the Band to bring this petition. The Attorney General points to the fact that the Little Shuswap nation, also a member of the Lakes Division, signed a consultation agreement with the Crown and the Neskonlith nation, another member of the Lakes Division, is not a party to the proceeding. 35 The Band argues that until there is a recognized body within the Lakes Division with whom the Crown acknowledges it must consult in regard to decisions affecting their traditional territory, each member of the Lakes Division has the capacity to represent the interests of the Lakes Division. The Band says the Crown recognized an obligation to consult separately with each of the three bands that make up the Lakes Division during the consultation process and carried out separate meetings in many instances. However, the underlying basis for their claims and the corresponding duty to consult is based upon the rights acquired by the Secwepemc Nation and, in particular, its Lakes Division. In support of its argument, the Band relies upon Nemaiah Valley Indian Band v. Riverside Forest Products (11 November 1999), Victoria 90/0913 (S.C.) [Nemaiah Valley] at paras. 10-14. 36 The Band also argues the fact that one of the Lakes Division members accepted the consultation process as sufficient does not determine the sufficiency of the consultation for all members: Huu-Ay-Aht First Nation v. British Columbia (Minister of Forests), 2005 BCSC 697 [Huu-Ay-Aht-First Nation] at para. 128. 37 The declaration sought by the Band is described at p. 2 of its petition as follows: "this Court declare there has been inadequate consultation with the Xxxxx Lake First Nation and the Lakes Division of the Secwepemc Nation before the approval of Order-in-Council 158/2010." At p. 3 of the petition, the Band states that Chief Xxxx has been authorized by the members of the Band to bring this proceeding by a resolution of the Band's council. 38 In my view, the Band has authority to seek a declaration that the Crown failed to adequately consult with it concerning the decision to grant incorporated status to the Municipality insofar as that decision affected the rights and title asserted by the Lakes Division in Sun Pe...
